The final novel of the Forerunner Saga trilogy by science-fiction legend Greg Bear amp;mdash; set in the Halo universe and based on the New York Times best-selling video game series!
One hundred thousand years ago, Chaos rules the final days of the Forerunner empire. The Flood amp;mdash; a horrifying, shape-changing, and unstoppable parasite amp;mdash; has arrived in force, aided by unexpected allies, and internal strife has desperately weakened Forerunner defenses.
Facing the imminent collapse of their civilization, the Forerunners known as the Ur-Didact and the Librarian reveal what they know about the relationship between the long-vanished race of the Precursors and the Flood.

Because of that savagery, a greater evil looms.
Only the Ur-Didact and the Librarian amp;mdash; husband and wife pushed into desperate conflict amp;mdash; hold the keys to a solution. As they face the consequences of a mythic tragedy, one of them must now commit the greatest atrocity of all time amp;mdash; a shocking act designed to prevent an insane abomination from dominating the entire galaxy....
